Couple Siezed by pirates
on delivery voyage. The couple,
along with the yacht's skipper Peter Eldridge, were jumped by
14 pirates who boarded off the coast of Tanzania. They were forced
to motor towards Somalia but the engine seized and they drifted
for a few days until a French warship arrived. The pirates fired
on the warship and the pirates ran the yacht aground and took
the couple ashore. More from NZ herald here
